It was a real Sperm whale Sunday! Our boat Ribeira Brava had on every trip Sperm whales. During our evening trip the animals were far offshore and out of the wind shade of the Island, so our guests had a very calm and a quite choppy sea, an interesting experience. Sperm whales are the biggest of the Toothed whales; they have depending on their size 20-25 rows of teeth. Their biggest tooth can weight up to one kilo.
